I don't really know how to vote in this. I only put LO in clothes that are in good condition but whether they are new or used doesn't determine how "nice" they are to me. I'm not overly particular as long as it's good condition, fits, is comfortable, and minimal characters (an animal is ok but no Elmo for example) or overly frilly. Spending money on her clothes is not a priority though and most is hand me downs, gifted by grandma or other family, or second hand. I but some special pieces.

I care that they look neat and cute but I don't bother to be trendy. LO2's clothes are almost entirely hand me downs from LO1 and his were hand me downs from many friends. I guess I end up dressing them in "classic" looks like polos and shorts, or the littlest one in rompers and John-John's/bubbles. I like trendier baby looks too but they are harder to find and we generally stick with carters, old navy and gap. I get rid of stained clothes even for play.

I'm picky about what she wears and I never put her in clothes that I dislike, and if there's a stain I can't remove then I throw it in the trash - but, 99% of her clothes are secondhand. So I don't think your options make sense.

I care (and insist!) that he wears clean underwear everyday.

Seriously--we commit all these sins on a daily basis, except at church, when he picks from a couple of nicer button-downs and pairs of pants I selected for that purpose. Beyond that, he has several pairs of shorts and pants that are frayed/ripping at the hem, and I have been only moderately successful at keeping him from occasionally decorating his clothes with nonwashable markers and pens. I draw the line at food stains--anything I with a food stain I can't remove becomes a rag, but food stains don't happen often. I'm not super neat or fashionable, but things and people under my care are really clean.

I'm really picky about underwear, shoes, and comfort/ease of movement in his clothes, but beyond that I buy him stuff that I like well enough and that is of the style he requests.

I voted 6. About half of her wardrobe has been gifted by my MIL and not all of it is my exact taste, but practically it doesn't make sense to not have her wear it. When I do shop for LO, I pick things that I think are cute but I still do it on a budget and I go for practical items. I would say every season I let myself get her 3 or 4 impractical cute pieces. Though this summer I went a little nuts with the rompers

I care that she's wearing weather appropriate, well-fitting clothes that are unstained (or mostly unstained). When I dress her (or at least offer her clothes to choose from), I try to offer outfits that match and that are cute. I try not to worry about it too much when my DH dresses her in stuff that doesn't match at all, although I admit it does bug me a little if I think about it too much.

Right now, her wardrobe consists of mostly things that I picked out (taking into account what I know she prefers to wear), although when she was younger, up to 75% of her wardrobe would be stuff that people gifted and it would always sort of bother me to put her in clothes that I didn't like. I wish I didn't care so much, but I'm the one who sees her wearing the clothes (most of the gift givers see her once per month at most) so I've stopped dressing her in things that I actively dislike.

I shop sales mostly unless it is something that I really think she needs then or is for an upcoming event!

She also has hand me downs and second hand clothes!

If it is cute why not?!
